Since 2000, she has been the core of the Chichimeca, produced by Tajrà – indie label of Cagliari; they released the albums: Barbari, Lucenur and Cuore?. Together with the classical guitarist Caterinangela Fadda, the duo founded the Violeta Azul, a tribute to the authors of the New American song.
In 2010, the both got awarded the Premio Maria Carta. She released the album "Un home del paìs" in 2012, in which she reinterprets the

Over the years, Claudia has collaborated as an interpreter and author with various artists on the national scene such as Tazenda, Pippo Pollina, Mirco Menna, Il Parto delle nuvole pesanti, Dr Boost and the Mexican band La Carlota.
"Com un soldat" was the first solo album published in April of 2016 by the Catalan label Microscopi. It is a record of original songs in Alghero-Catalan language lyrics, with music by Fabio Sanna and the arrangements of Julian Saldarriaga and Dani Ferrer, musicians of the Catalan band Love of Lesbian.
"Com un soldat" was awarded by the Targa Tenco in 2016 for the Best Record in a dialect and minority language, in addition to the 2016
Botteghe d’autore award and a mention for the best text with Frida at the 2016 Premio Parodi awards. In 2017, it was selected by the
Premios Min of independent music among the best international records published in Spain in 2016 and won the Mario Cervo Award for the Sardinian record release of 2016.
Claudia Crabuzza was present at Womex 2017 in Katowice, together with the Italian World Beat platform.
"Com un soldat" is a record that tells of a woman-mother-fighter who I am and which can be anyone. It is a feminine story which
includes many facets of life and different emotions. I wrote these songs beginning with the tale of the moment my first child was
born. Chimes of pain dedicated to those who suffer the same pain without having the same infinite joy in return. Then was born Mare
Antiga, a ceremony for the Earth, a great Mother who guides the most natural gestures. So did all the songs come as I was thinking
about my beloved Frida and Lhasa, influential women on the world stage, my three children, and broken hearts which have moved on to
seek new lives. "Com un soldat" comes from here, from my years as a grown up woman, full of desire to do things and turn off the
underground noises. It is my account of what I mean by spirituality’. With lyrics by Claudia Crabuzza, music by Fabio
Sanna, arrangements and engravings by Julian Saldarriaga, Dani Ferrer and Roger Marín.
